medicare, social security, food stamps au these programs. but when you cut money out of a food stamp program, you're taking food right off the table. i stopped in the grocery store and bought $36 worth of groceries the other day just to see what it's like. you know, it was five yogurts and five cans of soup and a box oftrist cuts and a few things. you say to yourself, if that's what you're taking away from a family of four, some days there's simply not going to be anything on the table for those people. so it isn't a question of whether whether they're living high on the hog. it is really a question of whether you're giving them enough energy to go to school and do well in school, work or to go look for a job or anything else. if you want people to work, you've got to have them fed. >> yeah. how do you see both sides of the aisle trying to negotiate on a farm bill considering such a huge $35 billion gap between how much the house and senate want to cut from the food stamp program? >> one of the questions that has to be answered here in the b

we had spectacular problems with medicare. we had problems with medicare part d more recently. these things take glitches. now, these things are going to encounter glitches. i wish the administration had explained that, frankly. but i think when they do explain that this is much like medicare and social security. the young and healthy contribute a little more so that we can cover the older and the ill. but that's what has defined much of our social policy and defines this country. we look out for the old and ill. the young and healthy are willing to contribute to the next -- to the last generation so that the next generation can live in a compassionate and progressive society. but i don't think we've made our case adequately. i do think things are going to get better. but it's up to the legislative branch to explain why we did this. it's up to the executive branch, frankly, not to make any more promises but to make it work to show that government can work because if they don't, there's not going to be much more that we can do over the next 2 1/2 years. >> congressman, jim moran
